There are 3 parts o each new build: XIP, SYS, drivers.

Obviously, drivers are hardware specific, and they don't port well. XIP and SYS, are for the most part portable. New builds consist of some vintage of drivers combined with an updated xip and sys. Porting a SYS is trivial, porting a XIP a little less so.

As a general statement, test builds are slightly unstable and shipped builds are all of roughly the same stability. Except for apache and titan, which have horrible stock roms, stock and shipped builds have comparable stability.

I accidentally found this thread while searching for something else. If it weren't for this tutorial I would have never had the guts for this. I tried to use the kitchen in the Diamond thread and found it VERY intimidating.

This tutorial shoud be stickied in all of the upgrade forums that it pertains to because it really would help a lot of the new people and the chickens like me.

Thanks so much! I had to flash my phone 5 times to get it right, but I learned so much. I can't say thank you enough!=D>

I thought I was clinging to the "old tools".. :) I have thought about updating this and re-writing it and posting in the diamond upgrade forum. But I too found the kitchens there might be a little difficult to understand by new users. I'm still learning all the ins and outs of the diamond, but I may just rewrite this tutorial and add in a couple of new topics. We'll see what happens...

(both are outside the kitchen folder) This is where I keep the ones I always add to a rom. This saves time and I'm sure to get all the programs I use. You do have to check the SYS folder to make sure there are no duplicates.

Mine will not recreate those folders and i dont understand using JD rom

You found reversing a rom to a generate a batch file kitchen that you then had to add OEMs to easier than just starting with a kitchen? Sounds like trying to cross the street via the subway.

What rom are you working with and which kitchen? And what size is the rom you are working with?
